Popper’s (Pseudo) Criticism of Marx’s Philosophy

The main objective of this paper is to present a reinterpretation of Karl Popper’s position on the methodological and sociopolitical views of Karl Marx. In spite of the weaknesses of the Popperian critique of the achievements of Marx, special attention will be focused on the explanation of contradictions within the epistemological position of the former. This will be of great importance in the context of the analysis of Marx’s historicism, and also help to undermine the coherence view of falsificationism founder. Additionally, this newly developed perspective will serve as a starting point for evaluation of Marx’s intellectual output, as well as concept referring to him.
